Philip brings land-based knowledge to our students and acts as a bridge to connect younger Indigenous students with traditional teachings. He also acts as a resource for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous teachers who need perspective on how to start the difficult conversations around colonialism and reconciliation in their classrooms.
